Death By A Broken Heart

DEATH BY A BROKEN HEART - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I lived to die of a broken heart * It wasn't easy * Nobody said it was * To live without feelings * To give in vain * Such a wasted life some would say * Someone who gave their heart away * I did * And that's an unknown fact * She never accepted it * So I couldn't take it back * And so my time did finally come * The moment sure did arrive * Then everyone wanted to rationalize on how I died * Their thoughts became their words * Then the theory was blown apart * The truth be known I was all alone * And I died from a broken heart *

In the afterlife * Time stands still all the time * I wait for the chance * To show her how I feel * Then she comes to me * Like a dream that's coming true * I died in ecstasy as I was thinking about you * And the Gods of all creation * Will be my only witnesses * And testify to this * That my love did exist * And she was all the reason * Her love the lack thereof * In the moment of my final breath * I spoke her name * And so my time did finally come * The moment sure did arrive * It was an involuntary decision * In an attempt to just survive * Then they rationalize on how I died * The manner how I cried * And my pain turned into tears * My isolation turned into years * And the truth lives on unknown * I remain alone * The place i dwell is dark * And I died from a broken heart *

Life never ends when love never begins * I cannot pretend that you're my friend * And while this love affair never did start * I still died from a broken heart * And the Lords of all creation * Will frown down upon my shame * I know that I'm to blame * I set you free * I let it be * I die again today * I walk away *

I lived to die of a broken heart * It wasn't easy * Nobody said it was * To live without feelings * To give in vain * Such a wasted life some would say * Someone who gave their heart away * I did * And that's an unknown fact * She never accepted it * So I couldn't take it back * And so my time did finally come * The moment sure did arrive * Then everyone wanted to rationalize on how I died * Their thoughts became their words * Then the theory was blown apart * The truth be known I was all alone * And I died from a broken heart *
